Analysis of Don’t turn your joy into a fog
The groom, before his marriage,
Has love for every dame.
But then the smell of barrage ¹
Left one without a game.
You shouldn’t be a cause
Turns joy into a fog,
So, treat your loving spouse
Like an impatient dog.
Don’t let him jump into a well
And share his searching side.
This means you feed him well
And walk him outside.
True love will never bother,
Yet there is one protection -
Don't look at one - another
But look in one direction.
¹Barrage – the smock of gunfire, cannonade
